2024 | Edition #12

12 years ago, REMA picked 21 March, first day of Spring and birth date of Johann Sebastian Bach, as a date to celebrate Early Music as a major common heritage in Europe: from the invention of Gregorian chant to the active community of the early XXI century, we share more than a thousand year of musical culture and practices! On Thursday 21 March 2024, we invite you to renew the experience with us, by organising your own event or simply by enjoying the many contributions from all over the world!
